Do
You Hear Me? Do you see me when I cry? Do you know that I can’t believe it’s real When I try to say goodbye? Do you feel what’s in my heart? Know that I’m lost without you here? Know that all that I see ahead Is an emptiness and fear? Do you know that I’m not brave That I don’t want to be strong? That I only want you here with me, And everything else is wrong? Do you see me stumble half-alive Going through the motions of a day? Loneliness among crowds of people Silence despite what I say? Do you know I look up at the sky Searching the clouds for something new? Listening to the wind blow Looking for signs from you? Do you known I cherish the time we spent And mourn that which we never will? That the future has an empty space That I don’t know how to fill? Do you know it hurts to smile? That I miss you walking next to me? That I’m not that person I was? And that I’ll never be? Do you know I’m afraid to sleep? To dream of you then to wake- The hope and then the desperate truth Is more than I can take? Do you know how much I love you? How these words cannot possibly convey How much I miss you and I need you, And what I want to say? Do you know you are still my baby? Like the story from yesterday, And no matter minutes, days, or years My baby you will stay. |
